Printer Logging Through Logpaths
In the Ethernet Interface product manual, destinations are
described as logical queues with associated models and logpaths.
Models determine if any extra processing is needed with the print
jobs passing through, and logpaths determine whether any logging
is needed for each job.
Each logpath on the Ethernet Interface consists of two parts:
TYPE The type of log information to be captured.
The choices are job for job ID and username,
user for user ID (and three messages per
job), pgcnt for total pages printed in a job,
cksum for file checksums, printer for
special printer feedback, and ioport for
parallel printer status messages.
PORT Where this log information will be sent to. The
choices are a TCP port number (e.g., 2000),
an email address (including an alias), or a
central host running a SYSLOG daemon.
To view the current logpath settings on the print server:
1. Load a Web browser on a network station that can
communicate with the print server over TCP/IP or using Telnet
(e.g. Telnet
ipaddress
). The command to view the logpath
settings is:
Syntax:
list logpath
NOTE: If prompted for a “User ID” and password first, type in
root for the ID and press ENTER at the password prompt
since there is no password by default.
2. Direct your Web browser to URL
http://EthernetIPaddress/destConf.html
(e.g., http://192.75.11.9/destConf.html).
NOTE: If prompted for a “User ID” and password first, type in
root for the ID and press ENTER at the password prompt
(since there is no password by default).
